For the past 25 years, demonstrating the making of Early American brooms and making new friends has been my passion. Now age and health are forcing me to close my shop and once more retire from the working world.

Thank you for your interest in my brooms and American history. You will be missed.

The art of making brooms is a unique craft with American history roots. Our historic brooms are excellent sweepers, making great gifts for weddings (African American tradition of Jumping the Broom), house warmings, log home hearth brooms and even wizard brooms for Harry Potter fans. They are also ideal for Colonial, Shaker and Early American heritage home decoration. Wicca, witch and occult followers also prize these brooms.
Warren Olney ties quality handmade brooms on natural or manufactured handles and on blacksmith's forged iron handles. He can also weave brooms on custom handles and replace worn out brooms on customer's handles. All his brooms are made for actual use although many folks use them for home decor.
